  • Abstract
    The Jansky Very Large Array (JVLA) is the result of the expansion of the original VLA. The Expanded VLA (EVLA) project has vastly improved a number of key aspects of the VLA. In this presentation I intend to describe the main improvements, summarize current capabilities, and describe plans for the future. I will also present a number of examples of the great new science the upgrade of the VLA has enabled.
